It is a harsh, ironical, paradoxical, warm-blooded and… tender story about a group of friends who live in a small seaport town. Their lifestyle is rigorous, their joys are simple and their sex life is raw. Their concepts of man’s dignity, friendship and duty are wrong and primitive. Tracking out the small treacheries and the “innocent” murders the film helps us to understand and forgive them with warmth and compassion. For little by little, we realize that maybe this absurd, vain life is ours. | Pavlov, Ivan Ivan Pavlov (born 1947, Nova Zagora)
